“I have a Toyota ECHO 2001. The car suddenly quit after I stopped at stop sign and did not start. I took my car to garage to fix the problem, but fuel injector fuses keeps blowing every time they replace new fuses, and they could not figure out the cause. I took my car to Toyota dealer 2 weeks later and they had to replace fuse box, wire harness that short in fuse box, and due to fault in wire harness, they had to replace one wire that runs entire car. It could have cause any accidents if the car have stopped in the middle of the traffic. It cost me about $1800 to fix this problem.”
